At which stadium was Arsenal versus Coventry City played on the 2026–27 opening weekend?

Arsenal versus Coventry City was played at Emirates Stadium on the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend.

The stadium in Holloway, London, is Arsenal’s home ground and hosted the season’s first fixture on Friday 21 August 2026. Arsenal faced newly promoted Coventry City in a match scheduled for 20:00 BST.

The Emirates Stadium opened in 2006, replacing Highbury as Arsenal’s home. It is one of the largest club stadiums in London and has a listed capacity of 60,704 for the 2026–27 season.

The venue is sometimes confused with Wembley Stadium because both are in London and Wembley frequently hosts major English football matches. Wembley, however, is England’s national stadium and was not the setting for this Premier League opener. Arsenal’s home fixture took place at the Emirates.
